India Today
South African skipper Dean Elgar said the DRS controversy offered them a "window" to have a go at the target with the Virat Kohli-led Indian team getting distracted by their on-field chatter during the series-deciding third Test.
South Africa skipper Dean Elgar revealed how the DRS controversy helped his team win the Cape Town Test and seal a historic series win over India. Elgar said that his team got a window period to go after the target in the third Test following Team India's on-field outburst on the DRS call on Thursday.
The left-handed opener's LBW decision by umpire Marais Erasmus was overturned after HawkEye showed the ball's trajectory going over the stumps. It led to tempers fraying in the Indian camp with skipper Kohli along with his deputy KL Rahul and senior offspinner Ravichandran Ashwin mocking the South African broadcasters 'SuperSport" on the stump microphone.
